﻿STRUCTURAL DRYING

If you’ve ever experienced water damage, or seen it up close and personal- you know that anything and everything that touches the water, even if it’s a small amount, will absorb that moisture as much as it possibly can. That’s why when you had minor flooding to just the trim of the walls- the sheet rock is soaked two to three inches above the trim. Water is merciless, and will fill every little crack, hole, or dent and hide in all the corners and places you didn’t even know your property had. That’s why getting the best and most qualified water damage restoration team to your home or business as quickly as possible is vitally important to the structure of your home- the longer the tiniest bit of water sits and soaks- the more the water will damage the structure of the property and even, with extreme damage, make the home unsafe to be in.

That’s why we use state of the equipment, and the time tested and proven methods of removing water fully and completely from your home or business. While we use vacuums and dryers to remove moisture or freestanding water, we use dehumidifiers, air movers to circulate the dry air, and thermal imaging is used throughout the process to be sure that every last drop if moisture is gone. The process of water extraction is incredibly scientific, and much like an art. It takes skill, knowledge, and the right tools and equipment to get the job done right!

When you call the water damage specialist at the Flood Masters, you know you’re getting the best restoration service in the Washington DC area. We take pride in making sure not one drop of water or excess moisture is left. That’s why we use top of the line, industrial strength dryers as well as thermal imaging technology to ensure that the moisture we cannot see with our eyes is found and removed. This will ensure that your property is not only water free, but that the soundness of the structure itself is strong and reliable. You’ll especially be able to rest easy because you know that there’s no chance of mold invasion, and no chance of further structural damage.

​Quickly removing standing water prevents excessive damage.

Although we invest in the highest quality of equipment- the one thing makes the biggest difference in keeping your property from severe water damage is time, and time is free.

Did you know that materials such as wood and drywall can hold in moisture for long periods of time- and the only time people notice is after the damage has already occurred? Unfortunately, we see this time and time again. People will realize tht some drywall is wet, or even bowed out at the bottom and that leads them to discover they’ve had a small leak for months behind the wall! That’s why we use technology like thermal imaging when we come to restore your home. While we dry up the damaged area- we’ll look around with our thermal imaging for any pockets of moisture we could have missed. We don’t want to leave to only come back a few months later with mold damage from water that was left to soak. This is just another reason the residents of Washington DC trust The Flood Masters to restore their water damaged property!

Here are some of the surfaces we specialize in when it comes to water damage:

Remember- the longer the moisture and water is left to fester and sit, the more extensive the water damage will be. Especially considering the high humidity we experience here in DC, it’s crucial to know that you’ve removed every last drop of water and that the source of the water was fixed. Common sources for water damage are the humidity, strong thunderstorms that cause flash flooding, rain water coming in from a hole in the roof, fault pipes, an clogged sink that had water overflowing, and even a toilet that overflowed. When it comes to water damage- we’ve see it all! However, no matter what caused the water to invade, the same process applies when restoring it and removing the water- act fast, be thorough, and use the toughest industrial equipment you can- normal dryers simply will not do. We still can’t believe when we hear that there are restoration companies still trying to use the normal run of the mill dryers- if you see that our advice is always to send them packing and The Flood Masters! ​
